.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
\fBps_pglobal_lookup()\fR looks up the symbol \fIsym_name\fR in the symbol
table of the load object \fIobject_name\fR in the target process identified by
\fIph\fR. It returns the symbol's value as an address in the target process in
\fB*\fR\fIsym_addr.\fR
.sp
.LP
\fBps_pglobal_sym()\fR looks up the symbol \fIsym_name\fR in the symbol table
of the load object \fIobject_name\fR in the target process identified by
\fIph\fR. It returns the symbol table entry in \fB*\fR\fIsym.\fR The value in
the symbol table entry is the symbol's value as an address in the target
process.
